2018 book 110

Carrie Vaughn's The Wild Dead
The second book in Vaughn's Bannerless series, about a woman who deals with crimes and disputes in a post-apocalyptic society, is maybe not quite as good as its predecessor, but is still very entertaining. In this one, she’s training a new young partner, and they’re sent to deal with a disputed over a rickety old house—when a body washes up on the shore and suddenly it’s a murder investigation. The mystery is pretty easy to figure out, but I like the characters and world building here so much that I didn’t even mind. More post-apocalyptic mysteries, please! A-.
